What is the opposite of 'Virtuoso'?

  1. Accomplished

  2. Competent

  3. Incompetent

  4. Proficient

The correct answer is: Incompetent

The term "virtuoso" typically refers to someone with exceptional skill or mastery in a particular field, especially in the arts, such as music or performance. Therefore, the opposite would be a term that signifies a lack of skill or expertise. The choice that best captures this concept is "incompetent," which describes someone who does not possess the necessary skills or abilities to perform effectively. The other options, such as "accomplished," "competent," and "proficient," all imply a certain level of skill or ability, which contrasts with the idea of being a virtuoso. In this case, "incompetent" clearly stands out as the term that signifies the absence of such exceptional skill, making it the correct response.
